WWE Bad Blood aired live last night from the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The premium live event featured the returns of The Rock, Raquel Rodriguez, and Jimmy Uso. Diamond Dallas Page also made an appearance during the event and revealed today that he had signed a new Legends deal with the company.
The promotion is now on the Road to Crown Jewel next month in Saudi Arabia. Fans could see more surprise returns in the weeks ahead on WWE television.
Listed below are five WWE Superstars who could return following Bad Blood.
#5. The Rock could announce Paul Heyman as his new ally on WWE SmackDown
The Bloodline unleashed a brutal attack on Paul Heyman on the June 28 edition of WWE SmackDown in Madison Square Garden. The Wiseman refused to acknowledge Solo Sikoa as his Tribal Chief, and The Bloodline responded by power bombing him through the announce table.
The Rock made his shocking return to the promotion during the final moments of Bad Blood and stared at Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes. The Final Boss may have struck a deal with Paul Heyman to serve as his Wiseman behind the scenes, and the Hall of Famer could potentially return to accompany The Rock as his new manager.
#4. Becky Lynch may return for revenge on Liv Morgan
Becky Lynch has been off WWE television since her loss to Liv Morgan in a Steel Cage match on the May 27 edition of RAW. The Judgment Day’s Dominik Mysterio got involved in the bout and is currently in a storyline relationship with Morgan on the red brand.
Lynch’s contract with the promotion reportedly expired earlier this year. In real life, she is married to Seth Rollins, who returned from a hiatus to attack Bronson Reed last Monday night on WWE RAW. The Man could return in the weeks ahead to reignite her rivalry with Liv Morgan after spending several months away from the company.
#3. The Viking Raiders could finally return to WWE television
The Viking Raiders are former RAW Tag Team Champions but have been dealing with injuries lately. Erik has been out of action for over a year with a neck issue, and Ivar has not competed in a match since his loss to North American Champion Oba Femi on the April 30 edition of NXT.
A vignette recently aired on RAW that seemingly hinted at The Viking Raiders’ return to the company. Erik and Ivar could return to RAW and potentially go after The Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and JD McDonagh’s World Tag Team Championships.
#2. Charlotte Flair could return to SmackDown
Charlotte Flair has not wrestled at all in 2024 due to suffering a significant injury last year. The Queen tore her ACL, MCL, and meniscus in a singles match against Damage CTRL’s Asuka on the December 8, 2023, edition of SmackDown.
Flair could make her long-awaited return and go after Nia Jax’s WWE Women’s Championship. The Irresistible Force defeated Bayley last night at Bad Blood to retain the title, but Tiffany Stratton teased cashing in her Money in the Bank contract during the match.
The Buff Barbie also recently shared that she would like to battle Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania next year, and the two stars could potentially begin a rivalry once the veteran is cleared to return.
#1. Alexa Bliss may return as a member of The Wyatt Sicks
The Wyatt Sicks have seemingly hinted at adding another member in recent weeks on WWE RAW. Alexa Bliss has not been seen since her loss to Bianca Belair at Royal Rumble 2023, but she could potentially return as a member of The Wyatt Sicks.
The star was previously aligned with Bray Wyatt but betrayed The Fiend at WrestleMania 37. Bliss may not want to return to the company alone and could be introduced as the newest member of The Wyatt Sicks on RAW.
